Question for the Lore team about Zed's aesthetic
Is his hair really white? 95% of the unmasked Zed fanart has him with white hair, and we haven't had a single hint regarding his appearance. Is it possible for you guys to answer his hair color?

Funny, I always thought of him as someone with black hair (to match with Shen).
Plus, the black hair matches with his theme of controlling shadows (which are, surprisingly, also black).
There is no official look but I'd imagine he would look a lot like unmasked Deadpool, the shadows are consuming his body.
To this day no part of his face is revealed. But most likely not since he isn't that old. But in the same time it could be since the shadow magic could be draining him or just transforming him into a living shadow.
I would assume Zed's hair is black or brown just like everyone else from Ionia. However, the Shadow techniques he uses could have changed that.
Zed is depicted with white hair in art for two main reasons I believe:
- Shen probably has black hair so it's a nice contrast to that.
- White is asian cultures symbolizes death. Considering Zed, and Ionia in general, is based of Asian cultures it would make sense.
